Personally have to agree with PJPR01 on this one. The tyres have different properties and hence behave differently...

And Smoogle, to avoid uneven wear on axles, I was allways to believe to swap front with rear on regular bassis... Rolling Eyes Worked allways, for me at least... Thumbs Up

I'll rotate my rears to the front, increasing the wear rate there and hopefully they'll all need replacing at the same time.

Thanks for the info guys.

I've got goodyears on and find them excellent in all conditions - never had an issue in the wet (even in heavy rain)


I'vr got Goodyear Wrangler F1 as well and I heard it does good job in rain. But is it ok in snow? Tread pattern doesn't look like it's for 4 seasons even though Goodyear web site says it's all-season tire.


Never had problem with the Goodyear in the snow although never really had that much snow in the UK to have to try it out. I have been offroading in them a number of times and not had any real issues in the mud, my biggest concern was the tread pattern would fill with mud and turn the tyre into a slick but this has never happened, even in deep mud it just kept going and going Smile 2005 TDV6 HSE Zermatt Silver Ebony Interior Sunroof, RSE, Side Steps
